Hello again. This is slightly late, but while im here I would like to talk about some of my first impressions with the Second Life virtual world. I have not spent a ton of time really exploring the different options this world has to offer me, however I have spent time examining the ways in which people of different cultures and backgrounds may interact. It is hard to assume that interaction in a virtual world does not draw in themes of sexuality. Second Life, as well as other virtual worlds are hubs used not only for meeting temporary partners, but sometimes even life partners. In this world users have the ability to customize their avatars in whatever fashion they choose, whether they are black or white or naked or clothed. One must assume that in a world where a teenager can sell virtual drugs to virtual people, that there are other adult activities that he or she can take part in. One interesting sort of room I entered at one point or another was a sex orientated room. A room where people can meet and watch their Avatars have sexual intercourse (atleast thats whats implied). One must ask themselves what the real world appeal to two people having sex via avatars? maybe married life is boring, or the person does not have much luck with meeting people in social, face-to-face context, but if this is the case why is the use of porn or other fetishes not good enough for these people? As I explore more I realize that not only can people have sex, but different sexual organs of differeing shapes and sizes can be attached and removed from your avatar.
